Like any brochure, it outlines your skills and experiences so an employer can see, at a glance, how you meet their needs and if your skills are at the level being sought.While you may have all the requirements for a particular position, your resume isn't working for you if the employer does not instantly come to the conclusion that you are worth talking to.
